Hello there. I think that you are having Paclitaxol (aka Taxol) which effectively attacks the nucleus of the cancer cells to stop them dividing where the cancer cells die off. The CT scan should show that it will shrink and if they are using the CA125 results, this should also show that the cancer is shrinking. Are you not also having Bevacizumab (aka Avastin) which is an immunotherapy drug that captures the protein on the surface of the cancer cells to prevent new blood supply forming and hence starves them causing them to also die off? Also, it enhances the effect of the Taxol in attacking the mass.
